Hello Tuesday.

I’m big into what I call “sandwich management.” I don’t like a sloppy sandwich that falls all over the place. Liberty has incredible burgers and sandwiches, but they’re stacked vertically in a way that will never stay together. Never. This is why I love the torpedo-ness of Which Wich (or Jimmy John’s for that matter), you know the sandwich is going to stay intact. Anyways.

VITALS

Today’s Weather: 71. Sunny with a 5% chance of rain.
Today’s Stat: 145. Number of Charlotteans that finished yesterday’s Boston Marathon.
Today’s Job: Events Manager at Charlotte Regional Visitors Authority. Go.
Today’s Charlottean: Jim Van Fleet, Charlotte tech leader, for being a tireless supporter of entreprenuership in Charlotte and writing about his next chapter.
